Unfortunately, this is the 3rd time that my 2014 chevy cruze has this issue. My engine light stays on while the stabilock service flashes on the dashboard; car jerks while either idle and/or stopped; a loud squeaking noise from under the hood (all these issues always start at the same time!!). I have taken my car to chevy dealerships and they have (supposedly) replaced the same part - sham cover (according to my invoices). I totally don't get why this is a not a recall issue. It is very frustrating to take my car in for the same issue, and of course, now that the warranty has expired, I'm sure it will be even more costly.... Which I really think it will be the same thing! (of course, I'm not a mechanic, but if I'm taking my car in for the same reason and they diagnose it and repair that same part; I'm beginning to wonder.... Why even charge me for a diagnostic test when your chances are it's the same issue!!) is this a part that only last a maximum of so many miles? I purchased the car in 3/2015; and the 1st time I received service for this issue was 6/29/2015, and then again 2/24/2017. I'm so confused!!! :( come on gm ~ help us out please!!
2014 Chevrolet Cruze driver assistance complaints
Page 3 of 4: complaints 41 to 70 of 79, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Car was stolen left front end was damage. Paid 2500 for repair. Pick up car 07/27/2018. The was in the shop 03/2018. They the car back to me no air bags. No front for cover on the sterring wheel. They want to pay another 279.00 for air bags. Now their a sound coming from under the car. I just don't have extra money insurance did pay off because I was not driving the car. The car do drive the same it keep cutting off. The speed is 20 to 40 it wontt go any higher and the engine is not shutting off. The is trying to zoom fast on its on. Iam really scare.
For a little over a year, I have experienced the radio shutting off and on, stabilitrak showing as needing service, the car shuddering, and the check engine light coming on. I have brought the car into a mechanic 3 times to determine what may be causing the check engine light to come on, and 3 times the computer says air intake. I have had just about everything changed, check engine light goes off, I drive for about 30 minutes, and it comes back on. Over $700.00 in replacement parts and labor, and still the problem persists. Today 7/1/2018, I drove down to have the oil changed and for the first time, the engine light has not come on, but now the car does not want to start and sounds like the starter or the battery is dying. This is above and beyond the most frustrating car problem I have every had, and I can't seem to find anyone capable of answering the problems with this car. The electrical problems spring up in the middle of nowhere while driving in town, and it seems to be okay for a few days if you mess with the battery cables, but they have already been replaced once and the problem is back!!!
I have had repeated electrical issues with this car. It started with the radio shutting on & off on its own. Then the stabilitrack started flashing on. The first few times that was all it was, but in the fall of 2017, that sensor would come on & my brakes & steering were affected. In addition, the car will have moments where it blanks out just briefly while driving, usually noticed by the radio going off & on. I have also had the key get locked in the ignition. Yesterday, 6/17/18, I went to start my car in a parking lot & several sensors came up, battery charging system, stabilitrack, & power steering. Car would not start, I kept shutting off the radio, & it would come back on. Car rested for 2 hours & then started again. Once driving, the steering was not right. Took a quarter of a mile of driving before the steering wheel did not pull 1/4 of the way to the left on its own. I have taken this car into the dealer with all of these complaints except the incident yesterday. Their solution has been new battery and new battery cables-twice. In the fall of 2017, I mentioned seeing similar issues online & they dismissed it. I just called about the 6/17/18 issue & I am getting the run-around from them.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 chevrolet cruze. The contact stated that the side detection system went completely out. Also, when it rained, water entered the module located underneath the vehicle, which caused the electrical system to not function correctly. Southfield chrysler dodge jeep ram (28100 telegraph rd, southfield, mi 48034, (248) 354-2950) informed the contact that the vehicle's warranty had expired. No further assistance was provided. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing or repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 38,000.
I was driving to work on the freeway and noticed the car was swaying and wobbling ... I had got 4 brand new tires about a month and a half ago so I didn't think it was that. The next day, same thing driving to work but this time in addition to swaying, it was jerking and loosing power or punch at times when pressing on the accelerator. The following day, same thing again, this time there was a warning light check stability trak, something like that. I also noticed the check engine light on. It also began jerking even more and when I parked it, the fan was very loud and running even though the car was not overheated. When driving home and stopping at lights, my car jerked more and only stopped temporarily whe n in parked or if I pressed on the gas. I am concerned the recalls for my car was never addressed, even though it is "saying" no recalls for my VIN. What should I do? I am not sure I should drive it far based on what others have said happened to them when driving on the freeway or loosing control thru an intersection.
2014 chevrolet cruze is flashing traction control light and radio is turning off intermittently while in motion. This started around may 1, 2018 and now has occurred on 4 separate occasions. There are currently no recalls for this problem and needs to be addressed with general motors.
I've noticed a problem electrical because bluetooth pauses during use. Windshield wipers fluid not reaching windshield. Horn stopped working. Key lock control stopped working. All has to do with electrical. Noticed brown rust on inside of driver side back wheel. Passenger front tire continues to deflate.
Driving 70 MPH down highway,turn turn signal on to change lanes and, loss of power steering, radio shuts off and service stabilitrak light comes on. All happening simultaneously. This is the second time this has happened. The 1st time I nearly ran into a parked vehicle while turning into a neighborhood.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 chevrolet cruze. The contact stated that the service engine and service stability traction control warning indicators kept illuminating. The dealer (tim short chevrolet, 500 thompson hollow, williamson, ky 41503, (606) 237-1220) who sold the vehicle was made aware that the failure had progressed within a week of ownership; however, no diagnostic testing was provided. The vehicle was not diagnosed by a dealer or an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that there was no recall. The manufacturer advised that the vehicle be taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The failure mileage was not available.
I own a 2014 chevrolet cruze. While driving 45 MPH, the traction control warning light illuminated along with the check engine light.

The contact stated that the vehicle would occasionally make a noise from the front when the warning lights appear. The approximate failure mileage is 68,678.
I purchased this vehicle used from a dealership 27 days ago. Two days ago I went to restart car after a short drive and the car did not crank, dash remained black, key was stuck in ignition. My daughter in law told me to pop the hood and upon wiggling battery cables freed the key from stuck position and I was able to start the car and drive home. This is when I learned this is not the first time of occurrence. I was hospitalized several days after purchase and my kids used the car. They neglected to tell me twice they lost power while in motion and car shut off. The first time was while exiting off the freeway. The second was while making turn after idling at a red light several minutes. Both times the vehicle power steering ceased and steering became difficult. On another occasion they experienced a no start similar to mine, a short drive, then car was parked and shut off for a short time , no crank at restart, black dash, stuck key. I had previously mentioned to dealer tech that car fails to keep current date and time. Each day I note it has reverted back again to the year 2010 and an incorrect time. A reset like click in engine compartment several minutes after turning off engine is frequently heard. Radio and dash lights have flashed while car is in motion on several occasions now.
Chevy 2014 cruze has malfunctioning sensors in the bumper of the car.the car gets wet.the sensors shut down and the battery won't charge and the car comes to a complete stop. The solution from g:m is to replace negative battery cable and the sensors and wire harness . How ever they will not issue a recall and this is very dangerous. My daughters battery went dead on the freeway. After research battery was replaced and negative cable replaced but g:m wants $2800.00 to replace sensors..this car has 52,000 miles on it and it's not safe..g:m admits they upgraded the sensors and harness so it's not supposed to happen again.won't stand behind the original product. These vehicles are in danger of shutting down at any speed and at anytime. At least they should issue a recall on the negative battery cable not a service bulletin #314...
When you are coming to a stop either at a stop light, sign, or yielding off the interstate. The car begins to idle very hard shaking the entire vehicle back and forth. Then it shuts off while the ignition is still running. You literally have to put the car back in park, turn if off then turn it back on to fix the problem. I still do not have a engine light showing there is something wrong with the car. But it is happening more and more.
My display and radio began intermittently flashing off and on. Then my stabilitrak service light began coming on. I have loss of power and am concerned for my safety trying to drive under these conditions. I am contacting the manufacturer who should warranty this manufacturing defect. There are hundreds of complaints on the chevy forum website. We deserve some sort of help with this and not at our expense. The problem I described happened while stationary and in motion but the loss of power is while driving. I'm concerned about getting hit while driving. Please help.

Radio or touch panel restarted then vehicle began shaking and making vibration noises enigine noises error light began flashing and stability track was on the driver information center about a mile further down the road everything cleared up to include the flashing engine light. Now it is on again and doesnt clear up cannot drive it. Recently have replaced at my expense the pcv cover and pcv twice, the entire AC delco intake due to massive oil consumpotion the crank seal due to squealing the coil pack and plugs due to a cracked insulator and electrolisis on the contacts. I now have 114,000 miles on it and read there is a recall on the battery grounding system that causes this current system and covers up to 120,000 miles? I searched and it has 0 recalls on this vehicle.
The vehicle's radio flashes on and off and a 'service stabilitrak' warning comes on the odometer screen. I have read this causes serious issues with others that have had the same problem and there is no known fix.
My car has recently started to have the radio to turn on and off randomly. Sometimes more so when I push my brakes. Also occasionally get a service stabilltrak warning that flashes and goes away. From what I can read online, others have this problem with no solution. Some situations have gotten bad and I want to avoid that at all costs and get this fixed, or figure out if I have to trade it in and get a new vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 chevrolet cruze. The contact stated while driving at approximately 50 MPH, there was an abnormal noise coming from the front of the vehicle. The check engine and traction control warning indicators illuminated. A local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.
While driving multiple times the "service power steering" message appeared on the dash. The steering wheel became tight and as I turned the car jerked outward almost causing me to hit other vehicle. Also the message "open, then close driver window" appears frequently. The radio and speedometer flickers on and off at times. I believe that there is an electrical issue but the the specific area is unknown. Another incident occurred that caused the car not to start on 7/172017
Car shakes when breaking at high speeds, car sound system shuts off and blinked noises stop. Abs, ebrake light, and traction control light come on. Screen behind wheel displays "serviceable stabilitrak" and "service traction control" messages. Vehicle is in motion and brakes are usually being pressed. Shaking of vehicle happens on the highway and messages and light appear while on city streets.
My wife had come back from a dr. Appt. Approx. 52 miles away from her place of employment on monday 5/15/17 at approx. 1:15pm. As she approached her employment, she made a left turn on a side street that separates two auto dealerships, where employees park on the side of the street. She noticed an empty parking spot on the opposite side of the street and decided to make a u-turn to park there. As she slowed down to attempt the u-turn, she made a slight left to begin the u-turn and at that moment all the vehicle's warning lights on the dash lit up, the message center screen located at the center of the cluster on the dash read "stabilink system disabled" and had lost all power steering. Upon losing steering, the steering wheel snapped back and broke her wrist in two places. The loss of steering resulted in our vehicle slightly impacting the vehicle parked to her immediate right. I (her husband) arrived literally minutes after the loss occurred, triaged her arm and needed to move the vehicle out of the street. Upon entering the vehicle, it was still running and had noticed all the dash and vehicle warning lights on, including the "stabilink disabled" message on the dash. As I began to drive it approx. 20 yards to an empty parking space, the vehicle had no power steering yet it was running. Approx. 9 hours later, I had gone back to the vehicle to attempt to drive it to a local body shop to store it and upon starting the vehicle, all systems were running again, no warning lights were present on the dash and the power steering had been restored. I attempted to find any indication of a problem thru the message center without success. I filed an insurance claim on approx. 5/19, had the vehicle preserved for evidence and is now currently stored and not moved at the body shop. As of 6/15, injury sciences llc is scheduled to plug into the ecu or data event recorder.
While driving on the highway, all the power went off and the steering seized for a short period and then came back on and reset itself. This happened twice within 30 minutes. This also occurred when backing out of a driveway where all power was lost and the steering wheel seized until it came back on and reset itself. This is a very serious safety issue where lives are at stake and find it appauling that gm has not issued a recall for this problem but rather issuing a service bulletin? These complaints are all over the internet . . . Obviously this is a critical issue for many consumers.
All of the sudden, all dash lights become on and off then shot off car completely. Then have trouble to start car with no power whatsoever.
The radio dashboard powers on and off (frequently at times). It appeared to happen more when the car was stopped at red light. It didn't occur often when the car was on the highway on cruise control. Twice when this happened, the main dashboard would display the following statement: "service stabilitrak" this begin happening on january 29, 2017, and it has happened daily (at least once) since.
Radio goes off and comes back on,warning lights come on and heat controls don't work. This is when you drive down the street. The radio went off 16 times in a 15 minute ride. This has happened for month's.
I purchased my car in april 2016 with approx 22,000. On the second day there was a loud noise coming from the front of the hood which it sounded very close towards the engine, exhaust part of the car. I took it in to the dealership and they didn't state what the issue was they just told me they had fixed it. The noise went away. 3 months later I started having issues with my steering wheel locking. I was at a big intersection when I was turning left my steering wheel locked on me and my entire lights including the dashboard went out. I couldn't move my car in the middle of the intersection and luckily there wasn't cars coming towards me. It took about 10-20 seconds to come back on. When it did come back on there was a lot of lights popping up and then there was a "stabili trak" light on. I pulled over to the side because I knew I couldn't drive it anymore. I called my dealership and I took it in that same day. They told me it was a wire that was loose and they had fixed it. Well they did not, 3 weeks later the same thing happened to me and they didn't know what was going on then. I took it in again and the problem went away for about 2 months and now I am back to the same thing except something new. Not only does my light come up and my steering wheel still locks on me but my car began shaking last night and when I would drive it it would make the same loud noise from the beginning towards the front of the car towards the engine, and it would hesitate on going when I would make a stop. Like if it was about to fully turn off so my car got towed to a dealership last night. The issues were not fixed and they are only getting worse.these issues should've been taken care the first time I had gone to the dealership. Now it's the 4th time I have gone to a dealership and nothing is being resolved and I pretty sure now there is a big issue with my engine with so little miles!
